Caifanes

Description

Caifanes, a Spanish-language rock band from Mexico City, formed in 1987 and achieved fame throughout the late 80's and early 90's. Caifanes are considered to be one of, if not, the most important Latin Rock group to emerge from Mexico and an important reference point in Latin American rock genre. Caifanes' style can be described as a hybrid of British new wave, prog rock, Latin percussions underscored by the deep, somber, and uniquely Mexican lyrics and vocal style of Saul Hernandez, while citing King Crimson as a major influence.
